Does Backlogs & dropped year really affect your Engineering career & for getting jobs  ? 

A common question we often come across by the study abroad aspirants is whether or not backlogs matter. To answer this, it entirely depends upon the region you aspire to study in

One backlog in engineering won't ruin your career. Backlog doesn't mean you have less knowledge in that subject. ... We all are habituated to get good grades till class XIIth and suddenly when we face situation in engineering we just cannot résumé as we are not used to such learning System.

Getting backlogs may have different meanings and different effects:

1. Getting some backlogs and still completing B.E. in 4 years - does not affect much

2. Getting backlogs and completing B.E. in 5 years - Still manageable

3. Getting backlogs and completing B.E. in 6 or 6+ years - Little more difficult

A major hard time one may face is to get “entry” into IT world i.e. first job.

Now a days, there are some companies which entertain people from options 1/2/3 above and hence can enable one to sit for campus placement.

If you are not eligible for campus placement, Chill, it’s not end of the world - but start of the real world.

Here is what you can do in such case:

  1. Identify which field you really like to pursue - Development/Testing/Support
  2. If Development - Java/php/.net/etc… i.e. Be specific with your goal.
  3. If Testing - Manual/Automated testing
  4. If Support - Desktop Support(Locla IT) /Server support/Windows/Unix/Cloud/Bigdata/Storage/etc… For all Support field, it’s always beneficial to get hold of at least one scripting language - shell-SED-AWK/php/python/etc…

Once you have narrowed down to what exactly you want to do - identify the top-notch certification for that technology and GET IT DONE.

Once you have relevant certification in hand, your chances of getting selected are more. Your hands-on experience is going to be the key to get you the job.

Once you are into IT, you have an opportunity to cover the backlog problem by doing a great job, being innovative, doing relevant certifications and being Smart. In such case, I would strongly recommend staying with first organization for 1.5–2 years.

Always remember, Life is full of opportunities and to grab then you need to keep your senses open. Take calculated risks and excel in what you chose as your field.
